The 3 things you NEED to know about petrol in diesel!


Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Brownlow Heath (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a comprehensive Cheshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to refill your car in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill up the car. They will handle the normal problems which might come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Cheshire we are noticing increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly as a consequence of motorists not being aware of the way to work with it (please note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to one another on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Because the product is mostly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters. If you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And most certainly do not start up the vehicle - not even to move it off of the pump. In case you have started the car you would most likely need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Whenever you end up in this situation don’t fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination business. Our engineers have got the specialised skills and working experience to get you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.


Wrong Fuel in Car in CW12 Postcode - Brownlow Heath Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a fantastic night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 am on a sunny Sunday and I was on the way to assist an older woman who had put petrol in her diesel black Volvo940 in Brownlow Heath. She told us that she had driven away from the petrol station and was stranded along a backwater lane on route to visit her godchildren. I got the location punched into the TomTom and was on-scene in less than an hour. I got to the vehicle and drained the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. Whilst I was doing it she explained, "Now I'm getting fairly absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the car working with diesel since I had just bought it a few days ago when my old one, which I used for over thirty years, finally died on me". I got the job done and she gave me a Murray mint and thanked me for my hard work. What a precious Cheshire lady!

Thus, in the event that you've filled your petrol car with diesel, or put the wrong fuel in your diesel car somewhere in Cheshire, get in touch with us right now. Our skilled technicians are available for you.

Last Friday a driver contacted us because his deep grey Bentley Continental died along a road in Brownlow Heath. He had by accident put petrol in the diesel vehicle and was only able to get so far as the street before being forced to pull up. It was in the early hours of the day and our engineer, who resides locally, was with him in approximately a quarter hour. We were able to get rid of the incorrect fuel and put fresh diesel once again in the vehicle. "Thank you for your prompt response, particularly at 5 a.m., I really am grateful for it."

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Brownlow Heath

We a few weeks ago got a phone call from a young man who had put the incorrect fuel in his dark blue Audi Q7 in Brownlow Heath. He had conked out on the road. "It was unbelievable how fast you people were in sending an engineer out to help me when I foolishly petrol in my diesel. Thanks". Of course we appeared promptly and purged the engine after draining the petrol from the diesel tank. The driver was delighted by the time we finished and he drove away completely happy.

This was exactly what we call an unsociable time to be up. It was close to 3:30am and hardly anyone was stirring. It had been quite uneventful thus far, and Ray and I were sitting about reading through a couple of old articles. This was an uncommon tranquil hour in Cheshire. Actually it was that quiet that when my mobile inevitably rang it made me start! The motorist on the other end told me: "I have completed my overnight shift and stupidly poured the wrong fuel in the diesel white Audi Quattro in error". We instructed him to inform us where exactly he was located and we headed out, ending up in Brownlow Heath less than half an hour later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed from the car. He thanked us profusely for showing up so fast. As we were coming back to the office we noticed two young ladies at the side of the highway who appeared to have a puncture. So we pulled over and helped them change it, to their delight.

How to find out if I put the wrong fuel in my car?

If you’ve just filled up at a petrol station and the cars starts to act a bit strange you might start to wonder if you accidentally put the wrong fuel in it.

Well, there are a few things to can check that will be able to tell you:

  1. How is the car responding? There are some very common misfuel symptoms which can be a good indicator of wrong fuel:
    • Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel
    • A lot of smoke (more than usual)
    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
    • Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
  2. Look at your fuel receipt. It will state clearly if you filled up with diesel or unleaded. If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VAT receipt.
  3. Smell it. Diesel and petrol have very distinctly different smells. Anyone familiar with the motor industry should be able to help you with this. Or you could even get another car to park alongside and smell the fuel caps of both, comparing them to determine what the fuel type is.
  4. Call us to come out and assess the car. In the majority of cases we will be able to tell if the car has been misfueled before beginning work on it. If we discover that the vehicle does not need a fuel drain, you will only be charged a call-out fee.
